From the previous message: "The main problem, the occasional time offset
on the whole array, is still with us. It was last seen on Feb 21; the one
before on Feb 14."
On Friday eve, Feb 28 UT, baselines and pointing were run in anticipation
of trouble. Sure enough, both those datasets show a timing error.
The current theory is that the weekly EOP updates are implicated.
The details may not matter now but I may as well set them down:
PROJECT DATE start UT stop comment
AE172 2009-02-27 19:40 - 04:38 Q band, shows clearly that the trouble
starts at 0h UT.
BASEL 2009-02-28 04:46 - 05:38 delta T=0.72s.
POINT 2009-02-28 05:54 - 07:39 delta T=0.85s.
AM975 2009-02-28 07:40 - 09:38 K,Q bands, del T ~0. Clean again!
Vivek.
